AVIATION BY JOSEPH S. cadets and enlisted men of the Army Air Corps and Naf Guard sre finishing up the biggest 3 military jobs this country has ™ known tince the World War and are Frep-flnx to leave for home in more han 650 Army planes assembled from stations in all parts of the’ country. The fact that theirs was a peacetime tack and that the foe they faced was a purely imag nar enemy conjured up by the general staff did little to easz the burden thcy have carrled ior the ast month. Thelr work could have een but little heavier had it Te2! var. The 1931 maneuvers of the 1st Air| Diticion will go int> the records as a n chapter In the advancement of military aviation progress. The results have been varied and most important o those charged with national defense. There never have been any aviation marcuvers in which so many miles have been flown without accident. When this was written planes of the divis'on had flown a total of nearly 2,000,000 miles without a single fatal accident and little more than a helf dozen minor accidents, despite the fact that virtually all of the flying wes in formaticn, and art of it was in the most trying com- t maneuvers. Only Minor Mishaps. Of the minor accidents one was due to locked brakes, which turned a pur- suit plane up on its nose; two were due to landings on the rough edges of air- ports, due to the space required for for- mation landings and one was a forced landing, due to motor failure, in the waters of New York Bay. The pilot, Lieut. Alfred L. Jewett, made a wonder- fully good landing, without damaging even the landing gear, which almost invariably is shorn off in water land- ings, and he and his passenger, Eddie Dowling, former Washington newspaper < gehow(npher, escaped with a wetting, ing picked up by a patrol boat before the plane sank. The ship later was fished out intact except for the damage done by its soaking in salt water. There were several other minor accidents, chiefly forced landings due to motor Tailures. Not a single plane was lost or dam- Hed in the hazardous crossing of the heny Mountains, the most danger- ous flying country in the United States, all 650 planes making the crossing within a period of two or three hours at a half dozen different points along the mountain ranges. Every one of the planes crossed the Justly feared Jerae{ pine belt, in parts of which a forced landing would be al- most as certainly fatal as a similar landing in the heart of Dismal Swamp or the Florida Everglades. Cadets and Guard Fly. ‘The magnificent record of the di- vision has been a tribute to American airplanes, motors and men. Though most of the pilots were Regular Army men, there were 69 flying ets from Kelly Pield, Tex., who have not yet earned their wings, and 99 of the planes were from National Guard squadrons, piloted by National Guard officers, many of whom can fly only intermit- tently because of the exigencles of their civilian lives. The Air Corps has learned through these maneuvers that there is not a single airport in the United States that can accommodate the number of planes assembled, though the total force of 672 planes was but one-fourth the strength of a full air division. It found that most large citles will have to be defended from the air in case of national emergency by an air | force based in some cases many miles away. They found that the National | 1 would require for its aerial de- | fense an air force which would tax | the airports within an area of 250 miles across. The Air Corps gained invaluable knowledge upon which to base its fu- ture development of the acrial arm of national defense, especially as concerns the ground personnel and equipment. It learned much about the proper method for distributing spare parts, fuel and supplies in case of the forced movement of a large aerial unit. Contact Needs Revealed. One of the highly important results of the past two weeks of maneuvers has been the gathering of knowledge of communieation requirements between &und” points, ground stations and :u;‘l.l c;‘)mmlnders and between air inits when a larg air 1 nilen, ge orce is as- It has found that take-offs and landings from the average a.rport saaly hamper the operation oi a largs force and that even with the force split among various fields some of the units will be forced to circle for as much as an hour and a half after completing their missions before being able to land. The lessons of the maneuvers which are being concluded today are expected to be reflected in a vastly improved military air force, the benefits extend- into every part of the organization. An Appreciation, Owing to the unprecedented magni- tude of the maneuvers and the unu:ll:ul interest displayed by newspapers and Pphotographic services in all parts of the country, the division press relations Job was not cnly heavy, but difficult. It was handled with the utmost efi- clency by a special staff under com- mand of Col. Ira Longanecksr of the office of the chief of the Air Corps. The service elicited the most favorable com- ment from reporiers who worked on the story in citles all along the line. Col. Longanecker took wih him from Washington as members of his staff Maj. O. W. Griswold of the Army general staff, Lieut. Arthur I Ennis and Lieut. Roland Birnn, who are in charge of photographic and press re- lationship work for the Air Corps at Washington. At New York the staff was aug- menied by Capt. M. E. Gillette of the Army Pictorial Service, Capt. D. Carle, on duty at Governors Island, who is about to go to Panama; Capt. Ernest R. Dupuy, Army Information Service, and Lieut. John G. Gerhart, Alr Corps, post press relations officer at Mitchel Pield. The splendid service of these officers has served to promote the most cordial relationships between the Army and the working newspaper men at all the | points visited the Afr Diviston, with eneficial results not only to the War epartment and the Air Cerps, bui to the public as well. Scribes Go Military. Newspaper men who accompanied the First Air Division, as well as offi- cers and men of the division, tasted some of the rigors of Army lifc in the field. At Fairfleld Air Depot, Chio, concentration and training center for the huze air force, Army cots were set up for the press in an enclent sheet iron hangar, officers and men occupy- ing sdjoininz hanga: When the weather was raw and cold, as it was during most of the ma- neuvers, everybody shivered. Officers, corr; ndents and photographers were | not the only inbabitants of their | hepgars. There were snarrows thet velled in high glce 2t dann and all through the dey. snd ofhcrwize, and es- pecially otherwiez, and comported vthemselves in unseemly mannsr pecu- liar to sparrows, to th= distre== of the representatives of the nress, Within a few hours the sporrows became familiar and contemptuous and, not content ‘with merely sitiing on rafters above the Army cots, would come down and sit on the cots. As the shades of nicht fell on a weary world, the sparrows, as is the fashion of uparrows, retired to their roosts in the rafters directlv overhe Nature does not tolerate idlensss. how: ever, and accommodatinglv provided a night shift of June beetles—scientific name unimportant—that came on duty as the sparrows closed their little eves, ‘These bugs, nr beetles, took it unon SOMB 1,400 weary officers, flying been 2 + EDGERTON. tions, into such correspondents as were up and around. ‘Weary Bugs Retire. When weary, the beetles would go 1o bed with the correspondents and, being bumbling sort of beasts, proved uncomfortable bedfellow: especially when they elected to crawl into the sleeper’s pajamas in search of warmth in a chill world. One correspondent so visited during the wild night came out of his cot like a skyrocket, arms and legs flailing the air, Jungs and throat giving voice to agonized sounds which rocked the tired little sparrows up above, causing them to voice their protest as only a sparrow can. The June bug, nighly Indignant, gave up his lodgings and bumbled off sleepily inio the night, seeking more hospitable quarters, On occasion during the day a spi row vwould chance upon some misbe- having June bug that was wandering around in the daytime, in violation of the code of the June Bug’s Benevolent and Protective Union. Having captured his bug, the sparrow would bear his prize off in triumph to some corre- spondent's piliow, there to chew up his mortal carcass, leaving behind in re- membrance of the feast a little heap of wing covers, legs and other hard or inedible parts. Bees and bugs and even sparrows, however, are all a part of Nature's wondrous plan for entertaining armiss in the fisld and so were accepted by one and all as an inevitable part of the cosmic plan. The Food Was Good. The food served the flying Army was much better than the age that might be expectad by an outfit playing onc-night stands as did the fast- moving Air Corps, except on one day when, as some wag romarked, the mess sorgeant forgot to remove the saddle an hour's notice without' any oppo: tunity to raid even the nearby pig-stys and chicken coops, as might be done in the case of any well regulated real war, It was ".'ifi"" ht;l‘ smote that mess sergeant & vy hand. ‘Washington of the face and hands at Dayton could be accomplished in a zinc trough and shower baths were to be found up on the hill. Hardy war correspondents made shift to shave without the ald of mirrors. Thanks to a New York press representative, at least one correspondent st Dayton learned some new angles to the gentle and time honored art of emitting weird sounds while ‘This chap, not content with merely snoring, lent va- riety to his efforts with terrif; collection . of moans. So prodigious were his efforts that it was general opinion during the early part of the night that he was dying and the fear during the latter part of the night that he was not dying. No Sparrows at Mitchel. At use of the fiber board, there were no rafters for the boarding of Sparrows. This advance in th> direction of purity, however, was offsct by the fact that there were most primitive sanitary fa- s, contained within low canvas mizht take a shower bath, might at the same time canvas and gaze upon and be gazed upon by th passing villagars. Few were the hardy souls, however, and gazing into and from this particular type of inclosure was reduced to a minimum. Tin basins and cold water were provided outdoors for those who indulged in such sissy practices as ‘Washington. Any correspondent caught with even a reasonably good shoeshine was regarded with curiosity amounting to downright suspicion and creased trousers were & badge of the tenderfoot. The Army's new ambulance plane, & dazzling white single-motored mono- plane, was given a real initiation dur- ing the of mancuvers. Four cases | mumps in the division resulted in the first mission for the new ship. The vietims were isolated until it was found the disease had b2en checked and the four wer2 shippad off to an Army hos- pital eral hundred miles away.
